Babies and toddlers are sweltering in some daycares. Should there be mandatory AC?

As temperatures soar, many daycares struggle with inadequate cooling systems, putting babies and toddlers at risk of heat-related illnesses. Advocates are pushing for a mandatory indoor temperature limit of 26°C to ensure safety, similar to standards in long-term care facilities. This push highlights a critical need for updated regulations to protect vulnerable children, emphasizing the importance of climate-controlled environments in early care settings. The potential change could have significant implications for child welfare and legal standards across the country.
